The Sliding Door Effect

Our aluminium commercial sliding doors and stackable sliding doors are designed to allow large expansive openings, which facilitate flow between indoor and outdoor living. When closed, the frames have little aluminium obstructing the view to outside which in turn allows a lot of daylight through. The gallery above demonstrates the architectural look these doors provide in residential or commercial settings better than words can.

State of the Art System

These frames are designed with Melbourne’s unique architecture and climate in mind. As such, they allow the freedom to achieve large expansive openings without the need to compromise on weather performance, durability or aesthetics. Our stacker doors come with a range of options, including flush floor sill options and handles, as we manufacture all our products to measure here in Melbourne and only utilise quality hardware.

SLIDING DOOR INFORMATION

Like the look and want to know more? The following is a simple explanation of the various options and components that make up our sliding door and stacker door.

CONFIGURATION

Shown below are some examples of our most commonly requested configurations. Our designs are quite diverse so if your configuration isn’t shown just ask and we’ll be able to help, we can actually make up to four panels stacking in each direction.

We can make sliding and stackable doors in Melbourne that are 3+ meters high and 10+ meters wide because they’re specifically designed for large expanses. As such, there is no real recommended width or height it’s more weight and site access dependant. We’re experts at doing huge glass panels so don’t be afraid to go big. Going big means less aluminium obstructing the view and more daylight coming through.

COLOURS

We offer customers a huge range of Dulux, Colourbond and Interpon powder coat colours as well as anodised metal. Our Dulux colour chart, which encompasses most Colourbond colours, can be downloaded on the left. Our standard range is the Duralloy range, but on request we can also do the Precious, RapidCure, Duratec and other colours.

If you would like us to order you a free sample card please just contact us so we can arrange it for you.

HANDLES

As standard all our commercial sliding doors come with a commercial stainless steel Zanda Verve flush pull handle (shown on the left). This handle sits flush inside our frame, which gives the frames a sleek upmarket look and feel. We also offer a range of larger pull handles with different shapes. Shown to the right is our Hafele stainless steel type pull handle. All pull type handles come with a single action hook lock with snib inside and key outside (only the cylinder is visible on the frame surface).

Of course, we also offer a range of traditional sliding door handles as shown below. As standard they come in sliver, black and pearl white, however, other colours may be sourced.

GLASS TYPES

Really it’s a case of tell us what type of glass you want and we’ll be able to do it. We can do single glazed glass, double glazed glass, low E performance glass and all kinds of tints, patterns and translucent glass.

In the majority of stacker glass doors in Melbourne, our clients usually opt for either clear single laminated or double glazed toughened safety glass. These types of glass are shown below.

SILL OPTIONS

In most cases, our sliding glass doors in Melbourne either utilise a double track for normal sliding doors (XO) or triple track for stackable sliding doors (XXO). Shown below are a few common sills we use that serve different functions. Our sills can be made flush with the floor if required. Please note that these are only some of the sill sections available and that some sill sections require subsills underneath for proper drainage.

Sill section samples can be obtained from our showroom so you can see exactly how our sliding and stackable doors in Melbourne will sit in your opening.

BOTTOM ROLLING HARDWARE

Our commercial sliding doors are powered by heavy-duty bottom rolling adjustable self-aligning ball bearing rollers for smooth, trouble free operation. What makes these rollers so great is that the wheel holders not only lean against each other, but also allow the rollers to slide against each other and consequently enable uniform distribution of load. We will select the correct roller for your frame based on its weight. As previously mentioned, our stacker glass doors in Melbourne can be enormous that’s why our rollers are designed to carry panels up to 300kg.

FLYSCREENS

There are a number of flyscreens that fit our stackable doors in Melbourne. The most popular flyscreens we supply are Centor, Freedom and Phantom retractable flyscreens and Brio and Ultrascreen pleated screens. We also do traditional flyscreens for normal sliding doors. If you’re not sure if you want a flyscreen don’t worry, they can be fitted at a later date. Below is a video of the Centor and Freedom retractable screen in action.

Q. Do you do standard sizes?

No, we make everything to measure in our factory. Once you accept our quotation (usually based on your approximate measurements or plans) we will come to site and laser measure your opening and make the frames exactly to size to ensure a perfect fit.

Q. What’s the recommend number of sliding panels?

Really, our products are designed to be big and fewer panels means less aluminium obstructing the view and more daylight coming through. That’s why most people opt for normal (XO) commercial sliding doors or stackable doors in Melbourne (XXO) when a larger opening is required. Our frames can go up to 3+ meters high and 10+ meters wide.

Q. Do you install?

Yes. We have dedicated experienced teams of installers who can install the frames for you should you or your builder/carpenter not wish to install the frames themselves (this, however, is usually more cost effective). We always give advice on things to look out for and what not to do should you not require us to install.

Q. Do you do cornerless (post free) sliding and stackable sliding doors?

Yes we do. We’ve done a couple dozen or so now and a couple of photos in the gallery show this type of configuration.

Q. Do you also do top hung sliding glass doors in Melbourne?

Yes, we’ve done many of these styles too. Feel free to contact us about them.
